Comments: Respro invoice stated boarding done at 847 Minnehaha Avenue West. However, Nicole Trifilette, owner of 1556 Grotto St N, has indicated that the boarding did not happen at her property, but 1566 at Grotto St N. Staff confirm boarding happened at 1566 Grotto Street North and recommends deletion of this assessment and re-assess to owner at 1566 Grotto. I did not order police report due to the deletion. -mv
